dudes understanding sounds inconsistent with what the Holy Bible teaches... :/
It's not extraordinary for people to commit fallacy with God's word. If you want to know what God says, read the Holy Bible. If you want to know what someone who is not disciplined in theology thinks, don't be surprised if it doesn't match God's word
Molecules to man evolution teaches that there are multiple races, some of which being more advanced/evolved than others, which was taught in the mid 20th century all across the US. Check out information about Ota Benga.
The Bible teaches that there is one race, the human race... created in God's image as the crowning act of creation.

I agree with most of what you've said here, except for "more evolved does not mean more advance or better." In a global sense you are correct, but isn't that what evolution is? The selecting of the mutations that are more suitable of the current environment and lifestyle?
I was trying to say that when something evolves it does not always get more advance in the ways we associate with, an example is with our appendix. Since the use of an appendix is more "advance" yet we, as Homo sapiens, do not use it. Also, evolution can/does cause living things to be worse overall, in the grand scoop of things. Since some traits will help in the long run but do not have a direct tie into current reproductive success but can in the future so they are not kept or dispersed throughout a population.
Overall, evolution does not have a path towards more advance lifeforms. Its only path is towards what causes a higher rate of reproductive success at a given point in time. Eventually decides rather or not the evolution was good or bad typically the more "advance" a living thing is the worse it is in the long run since it becomes too specialized.
